What distance do you regularly practice from?

[6.5 shooter]

30 40 and 50 is where I shoot from.

Now when I shoot its 20-30
When I lived in AZ I had a 90 yard range at my house and shot mostly 60-90

Compound bows?

Recurve and longbow here. I shoot mostly around 20 yds. This year I am going so start going to the state range that goes to 50 yds with NFAA style targets. I am seriously thinking about more field archery than 3d.

For me it's 25 yards. Although it's not so much the distance as it is the slowed down shot sequence. Don't get me wrong I like to step out to 10 yards and grip-n-rip arrows into the target. I truly love to step out to 25 yards and slow things down. My shot sequence takes near to 6 seconds. Bow up and take about 3 seconds to slooowwwwllllly draw to anchor, two seconds to settle in and and get my sight picture where I want it and feel my index finger and thumb on my bow hand just touch at the tips then ease my shoulder blades together. Shooting like this is much like shooting long distance with my rifle, I want to be surprised when the hammer drops. I like the feeling of my fingers just "letting go" of the string while the rest of my stays solid.

I shoot from 10-30 mostly for 3D. I will not shoot over 20 at deer. Longer distances make you have a better release and form to be accurate. It makes the shorter shots feel automatic

30-40 mostly
Then move to 20 for the last round and it always seems so easy

I practice up to 30 yards at my house. I try to go to the local range at least weekly, there I shoot out to 50 yards.

Like I always say, if you can't hit a quarter every time at 15 yards, don't worry about backing up.

Get well soon!!!!

20 30. 40. 50. When I went elk hunting up to 80 for a follow up shot if I needed to but didn't heart shot at 47 yards and ran about 40 yards and fell over. Luck was on my side.

20 and 30... I'm scared to try anything over
